CONECA (pronounced: CŌ´NECA) is a national numismatic organization devoted to the education of error and variety coin collectors. CONECA focuses on many error and variety specialties, including doubled dies, Repunched mintmarks, multiple errors, clips, double strikes, off-metals and off-centers—just to name a few. In addition to its website, CONECA publishes an educational journal, The Errorscope, which is printed and mailed to members bimonthly. CONECA offers a lending library, examination, listing and attribution services; it holds annual meetings at major conventions (referred to as Errorama) around the country.

CONECA was formed through a merger of CONE and NECA in early 1983. To learn more about the fascinating HISTORY OF THE ERROR HOBBY and THE HISTORY OF CONECA, we encourage you to visit us our main site Here

    I only see some irregularities below Monticello. I would assume these are clash marks.

      As Mike said, it appears to be a die clash. I can also see the clash left by Jefferson's queue and back of his neck above the right side of Monticello.

      Nice find. We do have a few very strong Jefferson nickel die clashes on MADdieclashes.com. You may want to compare your find with those to see what clash marks came from where.

          I just visited your other site mad,dieclashes.Nice site there. My question is just because there are die clashes, do it always have to be caused by the obverse? On my coin, Im finding die clashes from the reverse.I need to point out what Im looking at and see if we can agree apond something!!!

            When the dies clash, the opposing die leaves the clash marks on the other die's surface. However, if there is multiple die clashes, you can have what is called a counter clash. Basically, when a counter clash happens, the clash marks left by the first clash can be transfer back to the original die that made the first clash marks as raised replicas of the design element clashed in the beginning. This can only happen if the hammer die is offset from the first position. For more information take a look at MADdieclashes.com in the section titled "counter clash Type I". Do not get this confuse with a counter clash Type II, which is a different anomaly altogether.

              Well my coins shows actually what your site is talking about,Im not sure why nobody havent asked to see it ?? Pic 1 shows part of the design from the reverse and pic 2 shows letters on the building that had to come from multiple strikes and not just a normal die clash.I may show have to point out more to convince you guys of my point . If I have to I will..
